Roni's Personal Remarks:

I consider myself to be exceptionally lucky to be associated with such an enthusiastic and talented group.
I cannot even come close to expressing my thanks to my hubby Matt.
Thank you for supporting me through all of the shows, tech weeks, auditions, rehearsals and everything else that goes along with my "hobby". MATT, AJ and SAMMY-you are the light in my life!
